“We are thrilled to receive this certification from the FAA,” Alef CEO Jim Duchovny, who co-founded the company in 2015, said in a statement.

Duchovny and co-founders Konstantin Kisly, Pavel Markin and Oleg Petrov were inspired by Back to the Future II, which takes Marty McFly back to 2015. Then the development of the machine started.

A fully electric car will be able to travel up to 320 km without recharging. It fits in a regular garage, but can also take off vertically and fly up to 180 km. There will also be a hydrogen-powered version. Alef Aeronautics advertises the car’s ability to avoid traffic jams, fly in any direction while still providing a panoramic view.
